Shall we now discuss the Akashic Page? Ariel.

As Seong Jihan returned home, he mumbled.

From the elbow area, a black shadow spread, revealing Ariel.

[The Akashic Page Its equipment for those with supporting gifts.]

Equipment, you say?

[Yes. The Akashic Page amplifies the abilities of the supporting gifts.]

Ariel reached over to Seong Jihans desk.

From her touch, a black energy spread, and she grabbed the Space 23 model, a gift she received after filming the .

[Although it doesnt function permanently Its a remarkable amplifier. Its not just for folding and unfolding such devices.]

Saying that, Ariel shook her head as if she couldnt comprehend.

[The description of the Akashic Pages item should mention it amplifies supporting gifts. I dont understand why its used for such things.]

Hmm. There was no such description.

The item description of the Akashic Page on Earth was simple.

[Akashic Page (SS-grade)]

[Contacts a higher-dimensional information entity.]

In the past, since no one knew how to use it, the Akashic Page became a meme, getting called the most useless SS-grade item on the internet.

When Seong Jihan showed this to Ariel, she blinked in surprise.

[No appraisal? Isnt there a player with an appraisal gift?]

On Earth, SS-grades cant be appraised.

Among the players with the appraisal gift, no one could appraise SS-grades.

A minimum A-grade was required for the appraisal gift.

[Hmm How many are there in the lowest-ranked species?]

About 7 billion.

[7 billion? And not a single one among them can appraise an SS-grade? Truly they are the lowest-ranked species!]

Ariel nodded in agreement, further solidifying her belief in the equation human = lowest-ranked species.

Even if they had known about it, its likely it wouldve been used this way. In this world, supporting gifts are rarely used. If one gets that gift, they simply live like a regular person.

But to forsake technological innovation and invest in the Akashic Page for such people?

It was unthinkable for humans on Earth.

[I cant understand. There must be Dungeon Portals in this world, too. Dont you need players with the Exploration Gift to eliminate them?]

What? With Exploration, Dungeon Portals can be closed?

Seong Jihan widened his eyes at Ariels sudden revelation.

Dungeon Portals.

During the current tutorial phase, they only appeared in the bottom 10% of Leagues.

But after the tutorial, that percentage steadily increased.

Every nation, except the final ten, got covered with Dungeon Portals and perished.

The problem with Dungeon Portals was that their complete eradication was impossible.

There were multiple attempts to close Dungeon Portals.

They tried bombing them, and players attempted to destroy them with magic.

However, Dungeon Portals wouldnt disappear from such external attacks.

Humanity chose to enter the portals instead.

But even entering one, fully dismantling the dungeon was impossible.

Even if everything inside a dungeon portal was annihilated using tactical nukes,

The portal would become stronger in a day and regenerate.

The types of monsters coming out of these altered portals kept changing.

If ghosts or similar entities emerged, that region had to be abandoned.

Although attacks from Supporters or Mages did work, there were too many of them to fend off with those means alone.

And now, to hear those Dungeons could be closed with the Exploration Gift

[You didnt know? To find a dungeon core, exploration abilities are essential.]

I had no idea Supporting Gifts seems quite useful.

[Right. Thats why in our world, they are highly respected. To look down on supporting Gifts, what an intriguing world.]

Ariel shook her head as if she couldnt fathom it.

Then she asked, [By the way, whats the highest grade of the supporting Gift for the lowest-ranked species?]

The highest Ive seen is A. Our guild master is of that grade.

[A is the highest? Then there must be many lower grades like C, D.]

Thats right.

[Those grades are useless in supporting gifts Its only natural theyre treated like ordinary people. What about in combat?]

There are several SSS grades.

[I see]

Ariel seemed to have understood something and nodded.

Do you have any suspicions or ideas?

[Your kind is not suited for battle. For one, they have too many vital points.]

When Ariel pointed to her chest, a hole opened up there.

[Even like this, a Shadow Elf doesnt die.]

She pointed to her neck, and her head floated in the air.

[Even if only the head remains, they can survive.]

Impressive.

[Thats the survival ability of a mid-tier race. Humans, on the other hand, are so easy to kill. In terms of combat abilities, they would probably rank the lowest among the species participating in the BattleNet.]

Seong Jihan recalled the races he had faced as enemies in the Space League.

Indeed, judging by species alone, humans were the weakest.

Humans had a much inferior basic physical ability compared to other species.

Moreover, they had many vital points, and they could die from excessive bleeding from just a few injuries.

Meanwhile, other species could reattach severed limbs, and some could regenerate like starfish.

Especially the Elfs had vitality that even cockroaches would envy, making it unfair to be in the same league balance-wise.

[So such fragile humans participated in BattleNet To balance things out, the system must have granted them exceptional gifts. There are several who received SSS-grade gifts.]

Dont other species get that?

[No. When our star first participated in the Space League, the highest gift grade for combat roles was A.]

But they receive better supporting gifts?

[Yes. The average is B-grade, with the highest reaching SSS-grade.]

Seong Jihan nodded in agreement.

She is more useful for providing information than for fighting.

Ariel, the Shadow of the Sun, was beneficial as a summoned entity and as a shadow sword, but her knowledge of the other world was even more valuable at the moment.

She can locate a dungeon core with her exploration skills

I need to disclose this information later.

It would be best to immediately disclose information about dismantling Dungeon Portals for Earths sake.

However, Seong Jihan decided pragmatically that if it became known that Ariel provided this information, his life might be endangered.

Hes currently treated as the worlds top prospect, but becoming a target of powerful national intelligence organizations knowing Ariel has knowledge of the otherworldly League would be dangerous.

Regardless of how strong Seong Jihan is, hes currently only in the silver league.

Facing a nation-level threat would be challenging.

I need to release the information when I can handle the repercussions.

Its still the tutorial period, so the Dungeon Portals arent immediately threatening the world.

But I need to secure the Akashic pages.

Amplifying of supporting gifts.

Its something Seong Jihan, who still has a lot of growing to do, definitely needed.

If he could enhance Lee Hayeons Nurturing Gift, he would also benefit.

I need to find a way to obtain it.

* * * * *

[You have been summoned to the Abyss of the Apocalypse.]

[You belong to the Angel Faction.]

[Assist the angels and conquer the Demon Faction.]

Finally, the Angel Faction.

Seong Jihan was quite pleased for the first time in a while. After entering the Silver League, he had never been in the Angel Faction in the six games he played.

Ive been in the Demon Faction for four Invasions. The odds of being in the Angel Faction were 50%, but it felt like I was being rejected for breaking the Archangels sword.

It was just bad luck.

On the seventh day, he finally got into the Angel Faction, giving him a chance to obtain a piece of the Death Reapers scythe.

Meanwhile, the players who were on Seong Jihans Angel Faction team rejoiced upon seeing him.

Wow! Its Seong Jihan!

Woah!!! This is my first Invasion!

Im finally going to get carriedsob!

And for good reason.

So, these players are getting carried this round?

First Invasion? Silver noobs, lol.

Last round, all of Seong Jihans teammates were in the late 20s to early 30s levels, lol.

By now, shouldnt he be officially recognized as Solo Carry by BattleNet?

~.

Even when he first started the game, Seong Jihan played amongst those who were levels 48~49.

Despite being in such unfavorable conditions, he continuously dominated the game, and now the teammates he encounters have changed.

Previously, he would meet high-level players, but now hes paired with beginners whove just reached Silver Rank, level 25.

However, the opposing team is still around levels 40+, so excluding Seong Jihan, his teams overall strength was significantly weaker.

Am I the only one thinking Seong Jihan can carry even level 1 players?

He can even win a 5 vs 1, why is this surprising? Lol

Exactly. Among the Silver players, who goes around Jungling?

Are you talking about Barren?

Ah~ Killing jungle mobs in lane with a 200% buff?

If thats the case, why even go Jungling? Lol.

The viewers werent worried at all.

And as expected, the game went their way.

Damn Why am I against them?!

A thud!

From the guild Divergent, who was on the same team in the first game of the Invasion,

Seong Jihan, positioned in the mid-lane, ruthlessly pierced through the team leaders head.

[Player Seong Jihan is rampaging!]

[No one can stop player Seong Jihan!]

[Player Seong Jihan has the blessing of the gods!]

Now, even the system voice is all too familiar.

The viewers of Seong Jihans channel, unfazed, looked forward to his next performance.

Will he achieve a pentakill this time too?

Right. Hes done it in the Demon Faction, and Ive heard hell challenge it when hes in the Angel Faction.

Isnt Seong Jihans sword of the same attribute, so it probably wont deal much damage to similar attributes, right?

Dont doubt it, of course, hell do it!

And soon, as the viewers anticipated, the game proceeded.

Wow the feeling of being carried its even better than a Maybach.

Just Maybach? Its better than riding in a Rolls Royce.

Ah! I totally agree. Since were noobs, maybe he can carry us again next time

Seong Jihans low-level teammates casually chatted and enjoyed the game.

I thought we agreed not to encounter each other

I wish I was on Seong Jihans team!!

I wont get pentakilled!!!!

Ill just stay stuck in the jungle.

To avoid the humiliation of a pentakill, the enemy team players didnt defend their base, instead, they hid in the jungle.

They arent even defending their base. Lol.

Theyre not even in the well.

The pentakill video was immortalized on BattleTube Lol.

Its interesting they thought of hiding in the jungle Lol.

Ah, this isnt a big deal.

The Sanctuary Pentakill Achievement.

Although he had achieved it during the first game, there was no additional achievement point for doing it again.

So there was no need for a pentakill; he could just attack the protective barrier at the Demons Sanctuary and clash with the Grim Reapers scythe.

But there might be another hidden achievement.

Seong Jihan stopped advancing towards the Demon Faction and began searching the jungle.

Nameless Divine Arts Footwork Technique: Flashing Sky Thunder Steps

How How did you find us?!

It didnt take him long to locate players when he only searched areas not dominated by jungle monsters.

Alright, everyone. Lets go to the well.

Suddenly, players froze in place as they were attacked, their health points dropping rapidly.

Seong Jihan levitated them with Force and carried them as he searched for other Demon Faction players.

There was one at the base, so youre the last one. Four of you hiding impressive.

Please I didnt want to be immortalized on BattleTube Cant you just let us win?

Seong Jihan, who had discovered the opposing teams leader last, nonchalantly drained their health points while ignoring their cries

This will get you even more immortalized.

Carrying the four players, Seong Jihan arrived at the enemy base.

In that state, he said, Safe travels.

He then shoved all four players into the sanctuary.

With a thud, the four players stacked up.

When one more player, who had been resting in the sanctuary, joined, all five were gathered at the well.

With a sly smile, Seong Jihan said, Lets go for the pentakill, shall we?
